8th Annual Organic Summer Tour
Our summer tour is coming early this year—already in May! That’s the perfect time to see the cover crop at Pratum Farm in full bloom. Bruce and Paula Kaser will be hosting us on their farm near Salem, where they’ve been growing 55 acres of organic and transitioning hazelnut trees—including Jefferson, Lewis, and Dorris varieties—over the past 15 years.
